Personal Coaching Page for:Gwen

This page contains all of the materials we will use together during our coaching sessions and will continually be updated for you. This will make it easy for you to have one place to go back to find anything we have covered.

Step 1: Simon Sinek: How Great Leaders Inspire Action

Simon Sinek's Golden Circle

Workwork: During Session #1, we'll talk about the content from this talk and how it relates to your work at Kaiser Permanente and beyond. Please take notes during the video.

Step 2: The 6 Signals

Ed Wohlmuth wrote the Overnight Guide to Public Speaking in 1983, which led me to use one of his techniques in every single presentation I have delivered since. When you use these 6 Signals with your audiences, you will see a difference in how they respond to you and you will have an unfair advantage over other presenters who do not cover them:

I will not waste your time

I know who you are

I am well organized

I know my subject

Here is my most important point

I am finished

Workwork: Experiment with Signal #1 in all meetings that you manage both in person and online. We will talk about the reactions of your audiences when we meet for Session #1. If you want to stretch a bit, try to consciously cover all 6 Signals in a few meetings or presentations and note the reactions of the audience.
